The D is rarely in the itinerary anymore.. (I wrote this post a few years ago).. thanks for your comment. Yeah, flaws don't destroy. What destroys is how people react to them -- a constant reminder of how so much in life is out of our control. In the end, our flaws are what give us true beauty. Thanks, Burto.

My answer: urban decay, ruins, tattoos, unbridled diversity, the unsymmetrical, the bizarre, some forms of insecurity, to name a few. "Imperfection" as society illustrates. To those who consider imperfection sublime, the <em>imperfec</em>t becomes the <em>perfect</em>. Thanks for reading. Great question, Shea.

The reason why people are drawn to imperfection is that it brings with it its own story, something that most men and women are either terrified of now, or are, sadly, incapable of in our 24/7 competitive world. I hate it. It has made any kind of real connection among people almost impossible. It disconnects us with our real selves, something most people are also terrified of: that moment of complete vulnerability, of insight, of beautiful meaning. In a world where Donald Trump has become a role model, and "You're fired" has become either a joke or a back-alley threat, the real self is in exile. Sadly. This is really gorgeous; it’s exquisite.
